Qiu Yang’s issue has reached a conclusion, and the remaining matters are left to the police to handle.
Lin Zhiyi returned to a calm life.
Only, her heart wasn’t truly at ease.
She even felt that sothing else was waiting for her.
But watching Gong Chen and Xingxing, she gradually set aside the matters in her heart.
Liu He and Gong Shiyan held a banquet for the child on this day.
Lin Zhiyi attended with a gift, accompanied by Gong Chen.
Considering that the child’s arrival ca after many twists and turns, Liu He and Gong Shiyan did not make grand arrangents.
They just invited so relatives and friends.
Outside the banquet hall, a growth tree was hung with photos of the child and parents.
Lin Zhiyi saw a photo of herself holding the child among them.
She stared at the photo and smiled, not even noticing Gong Chen approaching.
"What are you looking at?"
"I’m feeling a bit sentintal, whether it’s giving birth myself or others giving birth, it’s amazing that such a small person can grow up so quickly."
Lin Zhiyi touched the photo.
Besides that, she felt grateful that Liu He and Gong Shiyan had a happy ending in this life.
Gong Chen held her hand: "They will be fine."
And you will be too.
Gong Chen thought silently.
This ti, Lin Zhiyi did not withdraw her hand, instead, she held it tighter.
"Hmm."
The two walked towards the banquet hall with smiles.
However, an unusual gaze ca from behind.
Lin Zhiyi instinctively turned to look and was slightly stunned seeing the people coming.
She couldn’t believe Liu He actually invited the Bai family mother and daughter.
At this mont, Yang Jingwei was staring at her with a strange expression.
She asked Gong Chen in a low voice: "What’s going on? Why are they here?"
Gong Chen whispered: "Bai Ruoshu married Gong Yao, it’s a happy event for the Gong family, how could they not co? Even if your mom doesn’t want them here, the invitation etiquette must be observed."
"As long as she’s here, she irritates my mom, one would think there’s so deep vendetta between them."
Gong Chen glanced at the people coming.
When his eyes t Yang Jingwei’s, she smiled indifferently.
She seed completely unconcerned about what had happened at the police station.
Even showing so provocation.
Gong Chen withdrew his gaze calmly, preparing to leave.
Unexpectedly, Yang Jingwei quickly approached with her party.
She glanced at the hands of Gong Chen and Lin Zhiyi, covering her mouth with a faint smile.
"Third Young Master, shouldn’t attention be paid to such an important occasion?"
Lin Zhiyi lowered her head, having not let go before, now she wouldn’t either.
Instead, she gripped tighter in front of Yang Jingwei.
"Mrs. Bai, are you trying to ddle in Third Young Master’s matters?" she retorted.
Yang Jingwei paused and laughed softly: "Lin Zhiyi, can’t you learn how to speak to elders?"
Lin Zhiyi countered: "That depends on which elders, and besides, we don’t seem to be related, I think Mrs. Bai must be busy and wouldn’t have ti to ddle in other people’s business?"
"Sharp-tongued."
Yang Jingwei gritted her teeth.
Lin Zhiyi smiled: "Thank you for the complint. By the way, that’s the gift money table, I’m afraid Mrs. Bai doesn’t know, let show you the way."
Since you’re here, don’t just cause trouble—leave so money.
In such occasions, gifts cannot be lacking.
Yang Jingwei was sowhat taken aback by Lin Zhiyi’s bluntness.
Lin Zhiyi feigned surprise: "Could it be that Mrs. Bai hasn’t prepared anything? Miss Bai, after all, is Fourth Madam of the Gong family, it would be too..."
She glanced at Bai Ruoshu, who was looking a bit embarrassed.
Bai Ruoshu imdiately said: "You won’t be shortchanged."
Lin Zhiyi nodded: "Then I’ll thank you on behalf of my mom. Please, both of you."
Bai Ruoshu snorted coldly, and with Yang Jingwei, walked briskly towards the gift money table.
Yang Jingwei lowered her voice as they walked: "What did you say to her? Don’t lower yourself."
Bai Ruoshu thought otherwise.
"Lin Zhiyi and the Third Young Master aren’t avoiding people now, it seems he is determined to be with her. When the ti cos, she’ll overshadow ..."
"That’s impossible," Yang Jingwei interrupted, "Ruoshu, don’t worry. With mom around, I will never allow her to be with Third Young Master."
Hearing this, Bai Ruoshu felt slightly comforted.
After handing over their gift money, they walked to the entrance and saw the screen playing the child’s photos.
Yang Jingwei and Bai Ruoshu both froze.
It’s hard to imagine, the child that was almost sentenced to death.
Now, he’s chubby and white.
He has combined all the best traits of Liu He and Gong Shiyan.
Such a small child, yet his nose ridge is so prominent, completely inheriting the Gong family’s features.
His features are all quite distinguished.
He’s laying on a cushion in a baby cow outfit yawning, utterly adorable to everyone present.
Even before entering, the Gong family elders’ discussions were heard.
"This child looks a bit like the old master, no wonder he ca to see him today. He said otherwise, then turned around and gifted a large golden lock, almost as big as the child’s face—it was clearly prepared in advance."
"I felt it, it’s solid, Liu He has now risen in status due to the child."
"It’s not just rising in status due to the child. From the start, when the second son insisted on marrying her, she already won. Nowadays, beauty like hers is kept outside, rarely does anyone truly marry them."
"Luckily, we have no issues with Liu He, best to maintain good relations."
The two laughed and entered, completely ignoring Fourth Madam Bai Ruoshu.
Bai Ruoshu stared at the screen displaying the family’s photo.
It’s indeed visible at first glance whether happiness exists.
This child is currently receiving all the love and affection.
"What’s the big deal? Just having a child! Having a child at such an age and not feeling embarrassed."
Yang Jingwei clenched her fists and spoke coldly: "You’re supposed to prepare for pregnancy, how is the preparation going?"
Bai Ruoshu pursed her lips and said nothing.
"Are you hiding from that you haven’t prepared for pregnancy? Didn’t you promise before?"
"Mom, I’m so young and capable, why should I have a child so early?"
Bai Ruoshu was sowhat dissatisfied.
She really wanted to showcase her skills.
But she had to marry early, and to soone she doesn’t love.
And now she’s supposed to have a child.
She didn’t want that.
Yang Jingwei grabbed her arm and pointed at the screen: "Do you want to watch others being flattered? We must find a way to earn the old master’s trust."
Bai Ruoshu glanced not far away, seeing almost everyone surrounding Liu He and the child.
She felt utterly useless as Fourth Madam.
"I know, lately I haven’t deliberately avoided pregnancy, but Gong Yao seems very busy, always going out for social engagents."
Yang Jingwei sensed sothing was wrong.
She urged: "n can’t avoid eting won during engagents, if you don’t want to beco pregnant, there are plenty of won outside willing to."
"He wouldn’t dare!"
"Ruoshu, things are different now, don’t forget our plan," Yang Jingwei whispered.
"I got it." Bai Ruoshu touched her belly, "It’s just pregnancy. But this child is healthy and keeps blocking ."
Yang Jingwei smiled: "Blocking you? Then remove it."
"What?"
"Let’s go."
Yang Jingwei smiled and entered.
